I'm not really disagreeing with any of that. But so much of what people complained about with Cal are things every team and coach does. We just noticed it with Cal because he watch every minute of our games and listen to his press conferences. Some of these things are just things that happen with a basketball team, after 15 years patience just ran out with Cal.
I disagree. Cal would not have beaten Gonzaga or Duke with this team or any of his recent teams. But when it comes to playing SEC road games we are in agreement. Always going to be home cooking and only 5 or 6 teams in the country can overcome it.
That's all on you for expecting more from a bunch of players that was thrown together in a couple of weeks.. I don't really see any player this year that would be on this team in any other year here.. So far for what Pope has,, they've really overachieved in beating 3 top 10 teams.. If we play more teams that play like Ga,, expect similar results this year.. Teams that play a faster "paste",, we'll do good against..
I said nothing about the Gonzaga or Duke games. Saying "a lot of Cal's issues are issues every team has" doesn't mean I'm saying Cal had no issues or that every issue he had is experienced by other teams.
Well, let's lock in an argument here.
If this team makes the tournament it will exceed most of the experts expectations. Cal totally trashed the program by taking all recruits and players or forcing kids like Shepherd to the draft. Pope had 3 weeks to find the best players he could to field a team. I want to win every game but he gets a pass this season.
Here's ukcatz again with yet another 'I am smarter than everyone else on this board' post
Making excuses! Even bad Ky teams shouldn't lose by double digits to 2 football schools. And get outplayed and out hustled by the other
I have zero expectations far as regular season record goes.. Really only one I have is make the tournament and win 1 game.. That's it this year.. Think its just a huge transition for most of the team going from a school where maybe 20 people know you to here where 100s of thousands know you and expect what we the fans expect as a blue blood.. May be a tad too much on them right now.. Where they came from they could be in a slump and hardly anyone would care.. Here they're under a pretty big microscope,, so to say lol..
Boy,, you are dumb ain't ya 😂.. Can now go follow your daddy at Arkansas.. Not making excuses,, I said this when season started.. Call a spade a spade..
If we have overachieved by beating 3 top ten teams. Have we underachieved by losing to 3 schools that don't give a crap about basketball, it's just the offseason between football seasons for them. Asking for a friend?
The first one. Cal had unique issues of his own, but this board often acted like every issue he had was just a Cal issue. We'll see, and are already seeing, similar things with Pope because that's just the nature of basketball. And that's fine.
Youd better contact those schools and remind them they are supposed to suck.. They've not gotten that memo yet as they're a combined 38-11.. Go tell your friend he's a restard..
Not sure what a restard is.....but anyway it is clear you have very little understanding of the context behind the post which tells me you are most likely a fan just in the last 10 years or so.
You average 4 posts a year and act like you're a fan? Get the fck outa here 😂
66 posts in 15 years,, every single one of those 66 was bitching about UK,, the players or the coach.. Not sure what team you follow but its 100% not UK..
Soft has nothing to do with experience.
Really? Almost every team only won one post season game in five years?!
Whet was Cals record against top 10 teams the last 4 years. Pope has already had more success in half a season in big games than Cal did his last 4 years here
How did Calipari force Reed to the draft? Reed declared for the draft AFTER Mark Pope was hired.
